5/5

posted Feb-15-2009
When I decided to replace my five year old Pentium 4 desktop, I searched long and hard for different options. I didn't have time to build my own system (work + school = no time), but I knew how much I could save by putting one together. For this reason I was reluctant to go to a big-name retailer--I knew how much they marked everything up. I considered buying from Puget, Dell, HP, Best Buy, iBuyPower, and CyberPowerPC. If there prices weren't terrible then the BBB/retailer ratings were. When I found MPCS I was skeptical--but take a look at that eBay rating! It is 100% for a reason.
I had very specific requirements (case size, budget), and the staff there helped me address each of my needs. After I bought, I received daily e-mail updates that allowed me to influence the build while it was in progress. The result: an Intel Core i7 rig that absolutely SMOKES for almost $1000 less than what an equivalent Dell would have cost. I paid for everything I wanted and nothing that I didn't want.
Cut through the sales and marketing BS and the outsourced tech support. Go with MPCS to save a ton of time and money--you will not be sorry!
